Hi
Thanks for the quick response.
The impression I've always had of that system is that it is comparing the
sources two at a time. They can select between a number of sources, but only
one pair is looked at.
It basically timestamps transitions on all 8 inputs. The post processing
software that looks a the timestamps is what selects either 1 channel (single
mixer+offset generator) or 2 channels (dual mixer time difference)
The counters in the FPGA are running at 100 MHz, so they have a basic
resolution of 10 ns.
